NICU Rollercoaster....

We are on the NICU rollercoaster of ups and downs and are hanging on for dear life!! Grant had a bad day today, he had alot of apnea episodes today (apnea is when he stops breathing) and they had to put him back on the SiPap Machine to assist him in breathing. It gives him a rate of 15 breaths a minute and he seems to be doing better. They are checking for infections and doing a complete work up on him to make sure something serious isnt causing the apnea. Now the issue we had with his weight seems to be doing alot better. He now weighs 3lbs 8oz!! Holy cow!! Mike also got to hold him for the first time this morning before he started having issues and loved it... Its weird to think that Grant was more than 3 weeks old before he got to hold him... We just have to get used to the idea that we may not get to hold him every day and he may not be home as soon as we would like...but we rather him get all the help he needs and be watched 24/7!! We are keeping our heads up and know that tomorrow will be a better day!! Cant express enough for the thanks we feel for those who have prayed for him. We know Grant needs them and apreciates them. Keep em coming!!!!!
